last one looks tasty thanks!

i was feeling the beat pharmacy fact or whatever mix too - on a more diverse tip with some electronic and some reggae vocals -- so there is hope for the glitchy dub tech thing after all...

Thanks for the links ppl

Wasn't Detroit techno largely inspired by European synth pop/kraftwerk? I suppose that might not be so much the case with the Moodymann stuff.

Big topic. Afrofurturism, Kraftwerk, George Clinton, Lifts, Obsolete hardware . . .

edit : oh and the dj Electrifyin' Mojo

kraftwerk was hugely inspired by funkadelic, motown, and R'n'B. that's the kind of pop dance music they grew up with, and later imitated in their robotic way.

detroit house and techno is for sure aesthetically influenced by euro synth pop, but its real roots, make no mistake, are firmly planted in the arms raised, feet stompin, hollerin n cryin, body JACKIN' rhythms of Gospel, Funk, and the Blues.

 

[Bang Diddley]

You could try to get hold of Techno Rebels by Dan Sicko probaby the definitive book on the matter.

Edit just googled : it costs as much as More Brilliant . . .

HERE IS SOME DEFINITIVE MOTHERFUCKING ANSWER ON THIS MATTER RIGHT HERE.

THIS IS WHERE HOUSE MUSIC COMES FROM.

A LITTLE SONG CALLED "GABRIEL" BY ELDER CHARLES, RECORDED IN THE 1930s:

and don't let no fool or lying son of a bitch tell you otherwise.

in recent times there's a lotta talk about Kraftwerk this and Euro Synth that, and a lotta kids running around confused, thinking that it's the technology that makes the music.

no.

technology merely provides the latest sound palette with which to dress old rhythms.

the impulse to SHAKE your booty did not come from Japanese Keyboard manufacturers, and it did not come from the precision engineering of the Swiss.

it came from the abject POVERTY of the ghettos, it came from poor black people finding hope where there is no hope, it came from jazz, it came from gospel, it came from the pissed on and the forgotten: the African American experience.

am i an unlikely spokesperson for this? maybe. but the truth is the truth, and i pity those misguided souls who have been led astray from it.

christ almighty not this again.

 

[zhao]

christ almighty not this again.

like i said, a lotta confused kids runnin around like chickens with they heads cut off, not knowin the truth if it hit them in the face like a mac truck doin 85.

 

[zhao]

christ almighty not this again.

you probably think DJ AM invented house music.

 

[massrock]

If you want to look at causality in such one dimensional linear terms you might as well credit the oppressors and exploiters of African people with the creation of blues and gospel music.

People like music and people like to dance, it's part of what we are, all people, generally speaking. The impulse to dance comes from having a fucking heartbeat. If you get a 909 and select every fourth button you've got a house beat. Is that because it's a 'sacred ancient African tribal rhythm', is it something very simple and universal or is it an obvious consequence of the design? Could it be all three?

that's fine but this kind of relativity is not what i am addressing here.

house music came DIRECTLY from the funk, soul, disco, r'n'b, gospel, and blues tradition.

and after listening to a 1930s tune like this:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="335" height="28" id="divplaylist"><param name="movie" value="http://www.divshare.com/flash/playlist?myId=8303830-a21" /><embed src="http://www.divshare.com/flash/playlist?myId=8303830-a21" width="335" height="28" name="divplaylist" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed></object>

people who don't recognize this are either deaf, stupid, ignorant, or racist.

i don't even know who he is you massive doofus.

 

[zhao]

yes REALLY.

 

[hint]

I think most people know this, Zhao.

The issue is... what makes House music different from Funk, Soul, Disco, R'n'B, Gospel and Blues?

 

[zhao]

no. ancient rhythm traditions not only survive but thrive not BECAUSE of, but IN SPITE OF, oppression.

 

[massrock]

that's fine but this kind of relativity is not what i am addressing here.

Relativity? What do you mean by 'this kind of relativity'?

As I see it you are the one making relative claims.

house music came DIRECTLY from the funk, soul, disco, r'n'b, gospel, and blues tradition.

And, everything else. These things don't happen in isolation, nothing does.

But anyway so what, what's the point?

As for racism it seems to me that you are trying to accord some special position to one 'race'.

 

[mms]

this is just the same ridiculous shtick zhao gets stuck on from time when he speaks on behalf of the opressed black race, derails whole threads by calling people ignoraynt races cos they dont believe his 'all culture was borne out of the oppression of black folks' 'theory'. would ignore, and get back to the whats good in house music which massivley more interesting informative and enjoyable.
